Last day of 2016

It is the last day of the week, month, and most excitingly; it is the end of the year; the last day of 2016… Yeeeaaaah! Are you as excited as I am or is it just like any other day that disappears with sunset to bring forth another day at sunrise? Many people cannot wait to get out of 2016 as though a lot of things will change (for good or for better) the moment 2016 ends. mmm! I have been thinking how best it will be to spend this last day of 2016. I will try to decide during the course of this post. 

I'm Back!

Where have I been? We all seem to blame everything that happens to us and around us on recession and a lot of times on Buhari (Nigeria’s president). I too do o. But lazy people always look for someone or something to blame, instead of finding a way not to get stuck in everything. So what happened? Where have I been? The truth is, if I begin now to tell tales of what happened or where I have been, I’ll spend the rest of the days of the year doing so… that’s not my intent.

And the Best Part of Independence Day is...

In the spirit of October 1^st I rejoice. Happy new month people of God… It has been God all the way. October, November, December and 2016 is over. I have come thus far and so have you. Shouldn’t we have reasons to be thankful to God?

DON'T BE A CATHOLIC

This write up is not intended to stir up any argument but if it does I don't mind, as far as I know arguments can sometimes prove helpful. It is however aimed at gaining some clarity on the concept of being a Catholic. 

How Would you Spend Your Weekend?

TGIF has become popular on a day like this especially for those who work form Monday to Friday. Saturday and Sunday are work free days for them and as such they spend it the way they choose to. I remember how I spent my last weekend. I had planned it two weeks ahead already – Saturday, attend the wedding of a friend in the company of some other friends and that’s all. So my plans for that weekend centered on the wedding I had planned to attend.

What of my Meat?

Happy Holiday guys… I was very excited that holiday was coming and only when I am beginning to enjoy the holiday; it wants to finish – what kind of thing is that seeef…lol.

Thank God for our Muslim friends. If it isn’t for them, this holiday wouldn’t have been. So in a very special way, I wish them all Eid-Mubarak.

Now back to business… I am yet to get any ram meat from my Muslim friends in blogsville. Is it the cost for delivery that is the problem? Just tell me and I will trek to come collect it, don’t worry about the stress, we all know the situation of the economy… Keep my meat o.

Please I have a question to ask o: what is the possibility of this holiday being extended by one extra day? The last time it was the moon, what about now?

Do enjoy the rest of the break... Happy holiday.

Cheers!

Medina Book Club is 1

Hello Friends, it has been raining like forever since the beginning of the week. The last day of the week is here already and the rains is not taking it easy at all. I am having mixed feelings about the weather right now. 

Don’t get me wrong, for the very fact that I should be home resting (sleeping and eating) like all day, I love the weather, but I wish.I have plans to step out today to be part of an event that promises to be educative, inspiring and exciting. It’s the Medina Book Club 1^st year Anniversary. 

“Pheew! How time flies” those where the unspoken words I heard from Onyinye, my very good friend, when she told me about the anniversary.

A New Month as Zuckerberg's Walk in Lagos Wakes Me

Just as the month of August was coming to an end, Mark Zuckerburg the founder and CEO of Facebook flew into Lagos, Nigeria. The various social media platforms went agog. At a point yesterday, I checked twitter and discovered that Yaba was trending just because Mark whom I like to call Mr Facebook, trekked through the street.

From the pictures I saw especially on twitter, there were no visible sign of security personnel neither was it recorded that there was a helicopter hovering around Yaba area at the time. Mr Facebook walked in the company of his friends and few press men. From one of the aerial shots taken, a person selling pure water sachet could even be seen not too far away from him and his companions.
